Sphinx is an all-time favourite of mine , having read Nova's first series back in the 80's.Sculpted its jaw , nose ,hood cap , belt , jewel and bracelets , added some cut from its plastic package for the two hood fins and acrylic paint all over. The kilt is just a piece of fabric painted and glued to the crotch(ouch) and back...still learning the art, any thoughts appreciated !

Thank you , Jason! That means a lot, for I've been a fan of your work with MU , loved the Kree and AIM soldiers! I got this Hulk after I spotted here somebody's work on turning it into the first version of Beast ( sorry, memory fails on who did it ) . I ended up getting 4 of those in the hopes of making them the more unknown bulkier figures of marvel , since they're reasonably cheap and easy to find. Ironclad was first , Sphinx second...
Best,
Rok

You're a gentleman , thank you ! I observed that some here have a preference or appreciation of one style of painting over the other. I particularly like hue shading ( not sure if I said that right , but that's what GDX does nicely ) rather than a perfectly clean and uniform paint app (which is beautiful per se , yet I guess lack in authenticity, coming closer to what a factory-made figure may look). Different perspectives...Will try to develop on the former...Thanks again!

That's one of the beauties of this site...different artists, different styles. Stick to what you enjoy the best and try to master it. Sphinx is your best custom so far and I'm excited to see what you'll come up with next.
